Ignition Cable: Testing and Inspection
HIGH-TENSION CORDS
1) Disconnect high-tension cords from ignition coil assemblies while gripping each cap.
2) Pull out high-tension cords from spark plugs while gripping each cap.
CAUTION: Pull out each connection by gripping cap portion so as not to damage their inside wire (resistive conductor).
3) Measure resistance of high-tension cord by using ohmmeter. High-tension cord resistance: 4k - 10k ohm/meter (1.2k - 3.0k ohm/ft)
4) If resistance exceeds specification, replace high-tension cord(s).
5) Install high-tension cords.
CAUTION:
- Never attempt to use metal conductor high-tension cords as replacing parts.
- Insert each cap portion fully when installing high-tension cords.
